outlook express - emails stuck in the out box

[anne_murphy]

recently outlook express has held copies of emails in the
out box, apparently as drafts, even though they have been
successfully sent. I can't delete move or otherwis shift
these, and every timne a send/receive occurs, another
copy of the email is sent off! I am getteing an error
message, but there is no narrative - just an empty box.
Has anyone experienced this? Better skill does any one
know how to fix it?
